Many North Korean soldiers have deformed ears. What happened to their ears?
It's a wrestling ear: also called cauliflower ear; Yuanbaoer; Jiaozi's ear. It belongs to: the elastic cartilage of auricle is broken, proliferated and deformed, which has little effect on hearing.

Generation principle: it is a local deformity caused by trauma. Our ears are very fragile organs, only cartilage, perichondrium and a thin layer of skin. If squeezed or hit hard, it is easy to get inflamed. At this time, a large amount of blood rushed to the ear, causing subdural hematoma in the ear, which gradually separated the periosteum from the cartilage and could no longer provide nutrition to the cartilage as before. Over time, cartilage will be necrotic, forming wrinkled connective tissue. At the same time, the lump formed by hematocele will protrude outward, making the auricle thicker. The original auricular cartilage can not continue to grow normally, and the calcium originally used to produce auricular cartilage adheres at will, forming many irregular protrusions.

Ordinary people: wrestlers and judo players. Wrestling ear formation process: Wrestling is a fierce personal competitive sport.

At first, in the process of training or competition, all kinds of violent technical actions such as holding legs, pinching the neck, hitting the head and slapping caused friction and distortion to the ears; The elastic cartilage tissue of the ear is broken and damaged.

Later, because he didn't have enough time to recover, he devoted himself to training. (The athlete, who is suffering from severe pain, can't take time off to rest, but still insists on training), and the damaged area of cartilage tissue increases. Causing peripheral blood vessels to rupture and congestion. At this time, my ears were swollen like a full big jiaozi, which was mainly filled with water and congestion. Hands feel soft, and it hurts when touched lightly (imagine the stinging pain of acne in adolescence) ~

After a long time, the congestion and water inside dissipate to form hyperplasia, and it feels as hard as jiaozi after freezing ~

Prevention and treatment of wrestling ears: wrestling ears are not caused by one-time injury, but in most cases by multiple injuries in a short period of time. At the initial stage of injury, there is generally no congestion and water accumulation, only slight redness and swelling, and it will be painful to poke with your hand; At this time, through training with protective gear and giving enough time to recover and heal, serious fractures, congestion and water accumulation should be avoided.

Most of our athletes' treatment methods are mainly ice compress. Some of them will let the team doctor stick a thick needle into the congested ear and pump out the accumulated water and blood (but the eggs are useless, and the accumulated water will continue to be congested after training the next day), and it will swell, swell, and so on until it grows hard. The advantage of acupuncture is that it looks better after hyperplasia and hardening, like a hungry creature; On the contrary, it's not as hard as smoking, and then it looks like a jammed jiaozi.

Some people say that many foreign wrestlers he met didn't have wrestling ears, probably because some foreign wrestlers paid more attention to the protection of such sports injuries and adopted the former treatment method (wearing protective gear in time).

Generally, domestic athletes can basically accept and acquiesce in the existence of ears because they don't pay attention to them. They think it's no big deal that a wrestler's ear falls off (in fact, if you ask for leave, the coach will scold you: what leave! Isn't it normal to practice wrestling? We are ... Come on! ), I feel normal, and secondly, because the experience of wearing protective gear is not very good, and there are limitations to training. ~ ~ North Korea's words may have to be unconditional in addition to not paying attention!

Baidu Encyclopedia's explanation of "wrestling ear": Because of wrestling, a highly antagonistic heavy competitive event, athletes' ear cartilage will often be injured. Because of close combat, wrestlers often have to lean their heads against each other when exerting their strength, while the other side is struggling, and their ears will naturally be rubbed and hit. It may break at first, but after the injury is healed, the cartilage will proliferate. The players who practice for a short time have less cartilage hyperplasia, only swollen ears, and can basically see the original outline. After a long time, the cartilage of the ear is damaged and proliferated again and again, and the outline of the ear will gradually disappear and swell like cauliflower, which is defined as "wrestling ear".

I want to correct here: the little player's cartilage hyperplasia is not light, but the training intensity has not yet reached or the cartilage is soft. The training intensity of small athletes in general sports schools and athletes who have just joined professional teams is not enough to break ear cartilage.

Therefore, the wrestling ear symbolizes that a wrestler's comprehensive quality such as technology, strength and training intensity has reached a higher level. Without a certain wrestling age and corresponding training intensity, it is not enough to have long wrestling ears.
